Terms of Service

Last updated: 2026-04-15

These Terms of Service ("Terms") form a binding agreement between you and Veturu Pty Ltd ABN 48 691 855 482 (ACN 691 855 482), trading as Ephemr ("we", "us", "our"). By creating an account, accessing, or using Ephemr (the "Service"), you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

1. The Service

Ephemr provides ephemeral static web publishing: you upload a bundle of HTML/CSS/JS and we host it at a generated URL for a limited time. Pages auto-expire and are not executed server-side.

2. "As is" — no warranties (subject to the Australian Consumer Law)

Except for any rights or remedies you have under the Australian Consumer Law ("ACL") or other laws that cannot lawfully be excluded, the Service is provided "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE", without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, non-infringement, accuracy, reliability, or uninterrupted availability. We do not guarantee that the Service will be error-free, secure, or meet your requirements.

Australian Consumer Law. Our goods and services come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the ACL. Nothing in these Terms excludes, restricts, or modifies any guarantee, right, or remedy conferred by the ACL or any other law that cannot lawfully be excluded. To the extent we are permitted to limit our liability for a breach of a non-excludable statutory guarantee, our liability is limited, at our option, to (in the case of services) supplying the services again or paying the cost of having the services supplied again.

3. No guarantees of availability or retention

Subject to Section 2, we do not guarantee uptime, performance, data durability, or retention of any page, bundle, or account data. Pages may be removed at or before their stated expiration. You are solely responsible for keeping your own copies of anything you upload.

4. Limitation of liability

Subject to Section 2 and to any rights you have under the ACL that cannot be excluded, to the maximum extent permitted by law, we are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or any loss of profits, revenue, data, use, or goodwill, arising out of or related to your use of (or inability to use) the Service. Our aggregate liability for any claim is limited to the greater of (a) the amount you paid us in the 12 months preceding the claim, or (b) USD $10.

5. Suspension, termination, and denial of service

We may, at our sole discretion and at any time, for any reason or no reason, with or without notice: suspend, throttle, restrict, modify, or terminate your account; remove, disable, or refuse to publish any page or content; deny service to any person or request; and change or discontinue all or part of the Service. We have no obligation to provide a reason and, subject to Section 2, no liability to you or any third party for doing so.

6. Acceptable use

You agree not to use the Service to upload, host, link to, distribute, or facilitate any content or activity that:

• violates any applicable law or regulation, including Australian law (for example the Criminal Code Act 1995 (Cth), Online Safety Act 2021 (Cth), Spam Act 2003 (Cth), Privacy Act 1988 (Cth), and the Copyright Act 1968 (Cth)) or the laws of any other jurisdiction that applies to you or to us;
• infringes copyright, trademark, trade secret, patent, publicity, privacy, or other intellectual-property or proprietary rights, or contains material you do not have the right to distribute;
• is defamatory, harassing, threatening, hateful, or targets or incites violence against any individual or group;
• constitutes or promotes child sexual abuse material ("CSAM") or the sexual exploitation of minors;
• is fraudulent, deceptive, or impersonates another person or entity (including phishing, fake login pages, scams, or fake storefronts);
• distributes malware, spyware, ransomware, cryptominers, browser exploits, or any code intended to harm or gain unauthorised access to systems or data;
• facilitates unauthorised access to, scanning of, or attack against any network, system, account, or data (including C2, credential stuffing, or DDoS tooling);
• sends spam or unsolicited commercial electronic messages, or otherwise contravenes the Spam Act 2003 (Cth) or analogous laws;
• harvests, scrapes, or exposes personal information without a lawful basis under the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) or other applicable privacy laws;
• attempts to bypass, overload, reverse-engineer, or interfere with the Service, its rate limits, or its security controls;
• is used for gambling, regulated financial services, adult content, the sale of controlled substances, weapons, or other regulated goods without required authorisation;
• violates Australian, U.S., EU, UK, or other applicable export controls or sanctions, or is accessed from an embargoed jurisdiction or by a sanctioned person.

You are solely responsible for all content you upload and all activity conducted through your account and API keys. Keep your credentials secret; you must notify us promptly at support@ephemr.io of any suspected compromise.

7. Content and takedowns

You retain ownership of content you upload. You grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to host, store, transmit, cache, display, and process that content solely as necessary to operate the Service. We may remove content at any time under Section 5, and we will consider good-faith copyright and abuse notices sent to support@ephemr.io.

8. Accounts and eligibility

You must be at least 18 years old and legally able to enter into these Terms. You must provide accurate information and keep it current. One person or entity per account unless we agree otherwise in writing.

9. Fees, currency, taxes, and billing

Paid tiers, if offered, are billed as described at the point of sale. All prices are stated and charged in United States dollars (USD). You are responsible for any currency-conversion fees or foreign-transaction fees your bank or card issuer charges.

GST. Prices are exclusive of goods and services tax (GST) unless stated otherwise. Where we are required to charge GST (for example, on supplies to Australian consumers under the GST rules for inbound intangible consumer supplies), GST will be added to your invoice at the applicable rate.

Payment processing. Card payments are processed by Stripe, Inc. and/or Stripe Payments Australia Pty Ltd ("Stripe"). By paying, you also agree to Stripe's terms. Your card details are submitted directly to Stripe and are not stored by us.

Recurring charges. Subscription plans renew automatically until cancelled. You authorise us (via Stripe) to charge your payment method on each renewal. You can cancel at any time from your account; cancellation stops future renewals but does not, except where required by law or stated in our Refund & Cancellation Policy, entitle you to a refund for the current period.

Failed payments. If a charge fails, we may retry, suspend paid features, or downgrade the account.

Refunds. Refunds are governed by our Refund & Cancellation Policy and by your rights under the ACL.

Chargebacks. Initiating a chargeback without first contacting us in good faith may result in suspension or termination of your account and recovery of associated fees.

Price changes. We may change prices on reasonable prior notice; changes take effect at your next billing cycle.

10. Privacy

Our handling of personal information is described in the Privacy Policy, which forms part of these Terms.

11. Indemnity

To the extent permitted by law, you will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Veturu Pty Ltd and its officers, employees, and agents from any claim, demand, loss, or expense (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or related to your content, your use of the Service, or your breach of these Terms or applicable law.

12. Changes to the Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time by posting a revised version, and for material changes we will take reasonable steps to notify you (for example by email or an in-product notice). Continued use of the Service after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.

13. Governing law and jurisdiction

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Victoria, Australia. You and we submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Victoria and the courts competent to hear appeals from those courts, except that either party may seek urgent injunctive relief in any court of competent jurisdiction.

14. Miscellaneous

If any provision is held unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in effect. Our failure to enforce any right is not a waiver. You may not assign these Terms without our consent; we may assign them freely. These Terms are the entire agreement between you and us regarding the Service.
